PROBLEM (*9.85) As shown in Fig. P9.85. a solid shaft AB is to transmit 20 kW at 180 rpm
from the motor and gear to pulley D, where 8 kW is taken off, and to pulley C where the remaining 12
kW is taken off. If all
= 45 MPa, determine the required diameter d of the shaft AB according to the
maximum shear stress theory of failure.
Assumption: The ratios of the pulley tensions are to be 'T1 / T2 = 3 and T3 / T 4 = 3.
